Saga of a Wayward SailorAndrews and McMeel, 1979 - 264 sayfa The indefatigable viyager and storyteller Tristan Jones first gained widespread popularity with the publication of his bestselling Saga of a Wayward Sailor in 1979. It chronicles Jones' adventures from 1961 to 1968 aboard his beloved Cresswell, a wooden lifeboat converted to cruising sailboat. Jones survives storms, dismastings, arrest by the Soviet Navy, the smiggling of Edam cheeses and Barbary apes, and being sunk by whales. |
